Members who have visited the forum (Today or last 24 hours).

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This adds a simple display of all members who have visited the forum - either today (i.e. since midnight) or in the last 24 hours. Please note that it is not possible for this hack to count guests.

The main features of Version 4.xx are basically the same as previous versions ;

1. It displays the list on the Forum Home.
2. The list view is collapsable, so you just see the number.
3. Invisible users are only displayed to those allowed to see them (with a "*")
4. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc should be displayed correctly (based on the display usergroup).
5. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the time they were last active.
6. The list is in member name order.
7. The hack is now phrased.
8. The ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Forum Home Options.
9. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (vBulletin Options > Who has visited today).
10. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option (many seem to miss this actually exists).
11. The listing of members can now be suppressed (a simple message is displayed instead).
12. The list of names can be set to be always collapsed on initial view.

Unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.

To upgrade from version 4.10 onwards, you need to re-import the product with the overwrite option set to yes. To upgrade from version 4.01/4.02 to version 4.10 onwards, you need to uninstall the product and remove the template code in FORUMHOME - then upload the new product. To upgrade from version 3.xx to version 4.xx you need to delete the existing plugin and remove the template code in FORUMHOME - then upload the new product.

* Add-ons etc *

* An add-on to display a 'Most ever posters' count is available here.

* If you want the WVT display on a seperate page - see this post by EvilHawk - now updated to version 4.21.

* There is also a CMPS module that makes use of this plugin (by tgmorris).

In the Members who have visited (2) hook, comment out these two lines

	$today['opentag'] = $today['opentagb'] ;
	$today['closetag'] = $today['closetagb'] ;

Awesome, it worked!

Thanks

I was referring to the XML file for this hack. If all your installs fail then clearly you have a problem with your vb.

yeah i was working with someone on vb.com they think its a server issue. i am with go daddy and i found out they aren't good to host vb boards. so that's probably my problem. thanks anyway

Another question. I have it set to rolling (so everyone who visited in the last 24 hours is shown), but not everyone is displayed. It only shows about 24 people in the box, but it says "total people who've visited in past 24 hours: 51". Is that supposed to happen, and if so, how do I have it displays EVERYONE?

[Paul M]

Are you allowed to see hidden people ?

Yeah, I am, and I do see the invisible ones.

Is there some kind of post threshold on it, where anyone below X posts doesn't show up? It seems to be the lower-post members who don't show up. Click the link in my sig to check for yourself (about 6 or so members are invisible, so you'll see 6 less, but since that would mean about 20 users on it, and the number it says is 50, thats still something).

EDIT: Figured out what caused it. Its only displaying members that either:
-Are set to invisible mode, or
-Are a member of a secondary usergroup.
People who ONLY have a primary group aren't displayed.

EDIT 2: Upon further testing, its that comment that's doing it. Commenting out those two lines causes it to ignore people without a secondary group, for some reason.

Are you sure you commented out the right lines ?

PHP Code:

$totaltoday += 1;
$today['opentag'] = $today['opentaga'] ;
$today['closetag'] = $today['closetaga'] ;
if ($today['displaygroupid']) 
{
//    $today['opentag'] = $today['opentagb'] ;
//    $today['closetag'] = $today['closetagb'] ;
}
$today[visible] = 1 ;
if ($today['options'] & $vbulletin->bf_misc_useroptions['invisible']) 


The correct lines are shown above.
